Madhur Jaffrey with Mayukh Sen

Obviously we were going to do an episode about Madhur Jaffrey, and so here it is.

Madhur Jaffrey: the actress who taught British and American audiences how to cook Indian food.

Lewis Bassett speaks about Madur with Mayuk Sen, author of Taste Makers: Seven Immigrant Women Who Revolutionized Food in America (wwnorton.com/books/9781324004523). We talk about Madur's life, some of the barriers to her success as an actress and her move into being a celebrity chef where she made huge waves, plus a lot more. Find out more about Mayuk Sen here (mayukh-sen.com) and read his article on Madur here (washingtonpost.com/food/2023/11/27/madhur-jaff…) (paywalled).
